Equipment

1 Mixing bowl
1 Whisk
1 9x13 inch baking dish
1 Sifter
1 Spatula

Ingredients

▢ 3 large eggs - at room temperature
▢ 3/4 cup granulated sugar - divided
▢ 2/3 cup strong brewed coffee - cooled
▢ 1 cup mascarpone cheese - softened
▢ 1/2 cup heavy cream - chilled
▢ 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
▢ 24 ladyfingers - savoiardi
▢ 2 tablespoons cocoa powder - for dusting

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks and 1/2 cup of sugar until pale and fluffy. Add mascarpone and whisk until smooth.
In another bowl, beat the heavy cream with the remaining sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
Fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully combined.
Rapidly dip each ladyfinger into coffee, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy.
Layer half of the soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture on top.
Repeat the layers with the remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder using a sifter.

Notes

For an extra rich flavor, try using strong espresso instead of coffee.

You can substitute mascarpone with cream cheese if desired, but be aware that it will change the flavor profile slightly.

Perfect to make a day ahead for optimal flavors.
